As a former volunteer firefighter, the most effective glass breaker I have used, other than a Halligen Bar, was a simple automatic center punch!
Yeah the automatic center punch is the best glass breaking tool on the market really
Man that butterfly had a huge spine ......or tiny wings
I’ve used the glass breaker on the back of my 917 many time for extrication. Yes I do have many other tools at my disposal. But It’s always in my gear and can be accessed quickly, plus it’s easy to control over penetration into the passenger compartment of a vehicle. So you don’t risk smacking meemaw in the dome with a halligan spike.
Very true, and I’ve always thought it to be beneficial when a tool has multi purposes. One tool that does more than one assignment, means having to bring a lot less tools and wasting time at the truck grabbing appliances. A lot of people that don’t want the glass breaker have never used it for actual real world application i.e a vehicle extrication or child/animal suffering a heat related emergency in a closed car.
Yep I used mine a handful of times. Nothing wrong with it.
Came for the glass breaker rant, stayed for the pan to plate flip. Been looking but no other knifetuber has demonstated effective technique for defence against loaded soda cans. Thanks Pete.
I've scoured the internet for stories about anyone using the strobe feature on a flashlight. Never found one.
This was very refreshing (the glass-breaker rant). And the video brought back two memories. One, setting up the 10mm poly for my garden in Rockhampton. And Two, I used to buy those purpose-made glass-breaker/seatbelt cutter tools that mounted on a door pillar or wherever you reckon is a good spot. The moulded clamp held the tool really well and the glass hammer and the belt cutter were tools that really worked, because they weren't half-size add-ons to another tool.
I've got a true knife glass breaker story.
Everytime i carried the knife the glass breaker poked me in my side. They have no reason to be on a knife, and are only there for the tacicool crowd.
So Benchmade's target audience then?
I'm a car thief and I disagree. It is very helpful and not only for tacticool people.
Bout time somebody called out those manufacturers over their glass breaker addiction. Been buying & using knives for more decades than I want to admit. Never had to break windows. Quit putting that pokey stuff on my side of the handle. Loved seeing Ada.
I’ve owned a fire extinguisher for years and never used it guess that’s means I don’t need it right? Better to have something and not need it then need it and not have it. If you don’t want glass breaker the bugout is the knife for you. The bailout is in their tactical line.
@@sly2792004 I know what you're saying & don't think you are wrong. I have used a fire extinguisher twice in my life. Done a couple other things some prepare for & few ever have to do. Just think the situation people think a glass breaker will come in handy for is more unlikely than those. Breaking tempered glass is like some things, more about technique than force.
If you feel you need a glass breaker I don't mind there being some knives out there with them, just not models that don't offer a non-breaker version. A sturdy punch ( steel tool) is very good for this as well.
@@unnamed47 a fire extinguisher is to your house what a glass breaker is to a tactical knife. The people upset that a tactical knife is tactical should't be buying said knife. I don't like hunting knifes, so I don't buy them. I don't go on CZcams complaining about the style of hunting knifes. Tactical knifes are made for people who want glass breakers. I want a glass breaker on my knife. I don't carry a gun because I think I'll have to use it, I carry it because I might have to and I don't want to not have it on me if that time comes. one can only hope we'll never have to use a glass breaker, that's a good thing not bad thing.
@@tombrown8800 I carry a gun, so I already prepare for something very unlikely to happen. I carry extra mags and people say why you probably won't ever need more then one. I say I probably won't need a gun at all, if you're preparing for a situation that won't happen why not prepare for the worse possible situation that won't happen. they make a bailout without glass breaker. the bailout is just a buyout with a tanto blade. I like knife with seat belt cutter too. Lots of people carry leathermans. why? mean they make poor choice for any of the tools they have on them. you'd be better off carrying the other tools instead.
The bailout is ment to be a bugout for first responders and military who use glass breakers semi frequently. I think it works as a good full sized back up knife for first responders/Military because of its light weight and thin profile. If you hate the glass breaker on the bailout, I suggest getting a bugout. The glass breaker is a great tool to have on your knife as a back up for your dedicated tools. I love my bailout for that reason, it’s a good back up to my Letherman raptor.
I like it. It can be used for other things besides breaking glass
That omlette is AMAZING!!! 😛
If you got a red backspacer and yellow thumbstuds that would really start to get that boba fett look... Kind of tempted now.
Benchmade: We need to improve our knives to justify high price! Let’s add a glass breaker.
Customer: Idiots!
Most of the high price is markup. They are actually reasonably priced at the dealer costs. Then vendors map tax is added. Many of the vendors have requested that map be raised more.
Same can be said for Spyderco in different variations
@@herstal54s yea I can agree with that. These vendors dont even inspect the knives before shipping them, yet they keep asking for map pricing increases for profits. It's insane. I want a way to buy from the manufacturer without map markup, or as small a markup as possible. But yea at least spyderco build knives with better heat treatments and a few of the models use water cooled sharpening. Not to mention most of them are designed for users vs gimmicks like a fair amount of Benchmades.
@@tacticalcenter8658 I like both brands but Spyderco did itself in for with Shaman pricing with no material changes, just from CZcams reviews/Instagram/reddit popularity (jmo). I have a local BM dealer that's about $25 cheaper than everywhere else under the sun that I use just to support local business.
I find buying used or raffles helps me. Scalpers avoided of course.
"Glass breakers on knives are stupid and stop putting them on there fuuuuuu!"
Made me actually lol 😆
I just bought a protech TR5 and their glass breaker is amazing.
The soil in your yard is terrible. You should set up a compost system. I agree with you about the glass breaker.
Worry about your own soil lol
@@joe_a_photo Oh I do.
Omelet! I've used a glassbreaker at work a few times.
No glass breakers! Unless you are a Microtech Bounty Hunter, then you're badass.
I couldn't agree more regarding ridiculous glass breakers.
Biggest gripe with microtechs honestly... Why is there a stupid ball bearing on a pyramid off the ass end?
I mean, I agree, the glass breaker is dumb, but there are no hot spots because of it...
I've had the bailout for a few weeks and maybe cause I got child size hands but I haven't had any issues with hotspots... I actually find it useful cause I carry too many tools in my pockets during work and it helps find my knife very quickly
been using my 3V one daily for a year now. Got it and found some used aluminum scales for it so it looks like an M4 one. The pommel is at least comfy not like the glass breaker. been a great knife and serves as my main user. A small amount of the blade coating is wearing off from hard use at this point.
I like my titanium scales for it
Hows the edge retention and sharpenability of the 3v steel?
Thank you Pete!!
A new video.
Someone else saying those "glass-breakers" are not a feature!!!!
Another great video with several LOL moments. Cheers, Pete! As one can now get a Bugout with M4 and G10 scales in the same (or at least pretty close) OD green for about the same amount of money, I think the only correct answer to "which one?" is "both." :)
I set up a drip system to 5 fruit trees from my 3 air conditioner's water trays. At first I did 3 trees, but two ACs put out more water so added two more trees. Best doggone apple and peach trees in the neighborhood.
I never flip my eggs, just put the tight glass lid on with a spoonful of water and watch the yolks get white. Never break the yolks by flipping them like I always do.
Great back spacer mod. Very cool. Thanks
Agreed on the glass breaker. Watched a hard use video of a Benchmade Contego years ago in which the entire backspacer broke from using the glass breaker. And that had a profoundly negative effect on my young knife guy brain.
Thank you for the video Pete ❗ great job as always😊👍
Pete: omeeeeeega
Me, a stupid yank: Whomst?
Spyderco doesn't cater to the LARPers like the other companies do, and that makes me happy.
My bugout had the aluminium scales from the cheaper China one I bought years before...love the real bugout blade on thoughts scales its a rock
This epidode was hilarious! Great job Pete 😆😆
Awesome. A bloody funny smorgasbord of domestic life skills with a knife review thrown in. Thanks
I like the cooking part. You are, after all, the Cate Blanchett of your Aussie omelette.
ah, a chef john fan I see
You are, after all, the Daniel Craig of your hearty breakfast eggs.
Cate Blanchett is an absolutely gorgeous woman.
Really agree with this video. I love this M4 Bailout but hate the way that the handle digs into my hand.
The backspace replacement is the way to go but they seem expensive.
For the moment I have just removed it and have nothing in that back section.
I've wondered if there is a round barrel spacer that would fit just to give it a little more support.
Thanks for your video and I agree the knife is really great with a slim Tanto M4 blade and aluminum handles. Nice omelet and I do prefer my Bailout over the PM2 however I am thinking of getting some after-market scales to change the slab-sided PM2.
Video - Thumbs Up.
Thanks.
I have the 3V version and use it as a pommel to break up lining and such.
Looks so much better without the glass breaker!
I removed my glass breaker too and ground that Tanto into a drop point and it magically became what the Bugout should have always been 😂
It’s funny cause I actually carried my bailout today and I usually don’t, I got the other version that doesn’t have the glass breaker but the weird lanyard hole that also needs to be removed some time soon
You're so damn funny Pete, keep em comin! Don't neglect persona though, your JOY DEPENDS ON IT lol.
Gotta hit the thumbs up for the FF9 music (Eiko’s theme) 7:35
Great video. Love it.
What did you use for the replacement backspacer?
the omega spring diagram made me laugh so hard 😆
New knife in the mail AND a new Pete upload in the same day. It’s gonna be a good week my dudes lol
As soon as the picture of the omega spring popped up, I was instantly reminded of how immature I am... lololololol
I had an omega spring fail in my bugout, and I dont know how it happened, it just felt extra weak when I pulled it out after carrying it all day, then my knife was shutting weird and somehow the blade cut through the spring... I replaced the springs with a little thicker guage after market omegas and have had no problem since then. The axis lock is so much fun.
I very much doubt the omega spring was in such a position that the blade could have cut through unless already broken. There just isn't enough room for the the spring to move into that position. I had an omega spring in my right side just snap in half from fatigue and no matter how much I used the knife both pieces stayed in place because they just had no where to go in between the frame and the scale. BM just uses terrible springs for the axis lock. I ended up getting aftermarket springs like you did but I had to bend them since they were too strong to replicate the feel of the old ones.
Heck yea its garden time!!
I’m in the fire service and my bench made is the only knife I have that the glass breaker works.
Is it possible to grind the factory backspacer flush with the end of the handle?
I don't mind it, don't notice it myself. I've used it one time to open a jar of pickles I couldn't open. It pokes a nice little hole in lid. Although I'd rather not have it, the knife looks better without it..
No problems with frozen waterline, in Australia?
did you wash the knife between various tasks, or did you get soda and fertilizer in your tomatos and sausage?
I put titanium scales on my 3v version but kept the lanyard on it
BTW loved the video and the knife. I don’t have any tanto knives, but I would love to ad a few to my collection the Buck Marksman and Cold Steel Recon 1 are the first and foremost buddy...take care.
That can of Coke reminded me of one of my favorite movies..."The Coca-Cola Kid" from the early 1980s.
I use glass breakers on my knives, not to free people or myself from a car roll over as I think it’s not a tool for that, but I do use them.. sometimes for breaking glass, sometimes for breaking other things. I personally think they’re useful.
Lmao but I love your videos man keep it up please
Hope you or your family isn't affected by the floods,take care hermano
I have a glass breaker story for you. I bought a Kershaw knife with a glass breaker and I had to try it out. I was at the time a volunteer fire fighter so I carried that Kershaw for months and tried it out first chance I got. My dumb ass didn't put a glove on and cut the fuck out of my hand. That was the first and last time. An axe works way better lol.
You kill me man I’m laughing so hard right now at the diagram of an omega spring
Just here to commend you for using Spinach Rag!!! All your content is amazing but you know I have to let you know how much I love the music you choose! Made me smile Pete! Thanks. Have a great day.
I never recognize his selections but enjoy the crap out of them
Lots of old school RPG songs. Opening song here is from Final Fantasy VI.
@@Minusroot8 can definitely tell some are from video games. Many remind me on a really basic level of an artist called Hot Sugar
I feel violated by the choice of music.
But since it’s your video, I apparently enjoyed the experience.
Keep up the great work bud
Hey Pete, did you hear about the Victorinox SwissTool Spirit MXBS which was made for the Australian army? It has one hand opening plain and serrated/recurve blades. Apparently it's going to be available for the general public to buy later this year.
The real life rescuers used pens with glass breakers like mine, you need to use the search terms "pen" and "hero"
I'm sorry, my mind wanders, but you got a heck of an echo going on in your kitchen.
Thanks for the review!
Early on in my channel a made a video testing glass breakers on knives and pens, and it takes ALOT of force to break the windows. In a real situation i'd definitely recommend a specialized glass breaker
The Microtech ones aren't bad, and the OTF design makes them less awkward than on a regular folder.
@@familyphotoshoot2413 yea the microtech ones, or any other one that uses the little ball bearing on the tip I found to work the best
Holy cow, you like your dairy.
Came for knife content, always stay for music selection 👌🏼
I have always liked the bailout, I'd do the same if I ever got one! Also, out of curiosity what boots are you wearing in the beginning part of this video if you don't mind me asking?
I use the glass breaker to pop the tape on boxes at work
I spit out my breakfast when I saw your "accurate " drawing of the Omega Spring 🤣🤣🤣
Woah woah "a device such as this"???? Dude it's called a spatula! Holy hell man.
Hey Pete, between the M4 Freek and the M4 Bailout which would you recommend as a designated EDC?
Bailout
At first I thought you were saying Amiga spring, but I guess that's before your time as a gamer.
Ahhh before the console wars we had amiga vs atari st
Where did you get the back spacer?
I look forward to every video you put out. I’m not really subscribed to any other channels like yours. Would you recommend any other cooking channels.
But really. Does anyone else recommend any other knife channels? Thanks for all the non knife related content as well. 👍🏼
all we need are carbone Omeeega springs and they would never fail
A video in which Pete listens to fusion --- and then correctly scolds Benchmade for another misstep.
EVERYBODY NEEDS a glass breaker... lol
i think microtech puts a glass breaker on their knives as a legal thing..maybe in case of some court case it could be considered a glass breaker rather than a knife. i have no idea but that’s my theory. in the same way brass knuckles are sold as “paper weights” cuz of some little nibs
It really was enjoying watching the back of your hand instead of the blade going through the food good work Peter
How many leeks and tomatoes will M4 cut before it no longer slices paper?
Ten times better mixing compost with your soil than potting mix. Give it a go mate :)
Ok, but now you're going to need to review the VIctorinox Rescue tool!
Great video, that Persona 5 music and gameplay 🥰
So now, months later, do you still love the bailout? Because I love the bailout. And im rocking the 3v grivory version. It has reigned Supreme in my pocket over the last 12 months, near exclusively, dethroning manix2 in s110v.
yep, still like it a lot!
Literally never had an issue with the glass breaker. It's not uncomfortable. No hot-spots , nothing .... unless you have little girls hands...😅
All jokes aside Pete, would love to know what your thoughts are on the M4 over the 3V version. Have you ever had your hands on Benchmade's 3V?
M4 suits a folding knife better in my opinion. I’ve had the puukko in 3v and the toughness is optimized, not strength/stability. Apparently they’re treating it to 60hrc now which is appropriate for 3v.
All my opinion. I’m sure the 3v is a good enough option, just not the perfect steel/heat treat for the application.
@@lindboknifeandtool Cool, thank you for the information.
i think you could have a glass breaker if it was part of the blade and would recess in the handle when the blade is deployed. its also cheaper to manufacture that way.
Just a reminder, cars in the US are required to have laminated glass on side windows since 2017. European cars already use laminated glass for a long time (Mercedes at least since 2012, though not exclusively). So, make sure you check your windows before you put an utterly useless glass-breaker in your car "for safety".
I enjoyed your video, I’m a Benchmade fan! On a separate note, how’s that mouse problem you have going on in Australia?
Knowing how much you hate ladders I have a feeling that the glass breaker is not coming off that roof anytime soon.
Yes!
Here’s my glass breaker on a knife story:
Yeah. I got nothin’
Who do those (very large) vertebrae belong to?
I found this vid very informative. I had NO idea that Australians ate omelettes. Also, had never heard another man say “Touch it up on my pants”… I like it. Next time I’m at a bus stop and need to strop a blade - I may just ask a gentleman nearby if I may “touch it up on his pants”. I foresee a positive outcome.
After watching Road Warrior, Fury Road, and Razorback in a single go, which are really just documentaries about Australia, I can confirm that Pete knows what he's talking about. Glass breakers are stupid.
Reminds me of all those crappy m tech tacticiool mall ninja knives
glass breaker and seat belt cutter combo is what i carried in Iraq but the glass breaker was still absolutely useless because all the vehicles have super thick laminated plastic and glass armor for windows lol
Try the Worksharp Precision Adjust sometime.
At last! A voice of truth crying from the wilderness.
PS... My MTech glass breaker reacted very well to the ministrations of a bench grinder.
I see you are using the cheapest timer tap from Bunnings. I feel a timer tap review coming on :)
Nice stove
It is nice. We’ve been using one of those foolish glass top electrics. Finally brought gas to the house so we’ll hopefully get something sweet like that.
